New paediatric blood test to prevent sudden death from hereditary heart condition

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a rare condition that affects up to 1,000 children in the UK Researchers from University College London (UCL) and Great Ormond Street Hospital have developed a new blood test that could identify children with a potentially fatal, hereditary heart condition. The research, co-funded by LifeArc and Action Medical Research, was published in the journal Circulation: Genomics and Precision Medicine. In the UK, up to 1,000 children are living with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a rare hereditary condition that causes the thickening of the heart muscle. Over time, the heart can no longer take in or pump out enough blood to supply the body’s needs, which can cause sudden death in children and young people. Results from the study showed that the new test successfully acted as a marker for HCM.

Q&A with Bobby Azamian

Mike Hollan The Tarsus Pharmaceuticals CEO discusses the ways that his company is finding solutions that may have been overlooked. Bobby Azamian, CEO and chairman at Tarsus Pharmaceuticals, is focused on finding new treatments for diseases that he believes have been overlooked. He spoke with Pharmaceutical Executive about his approach to finding ways to treat the root causes of chronic diseases. Pharmaceutical Executive: Can you explain your mission at Tarsus?

I started as a scientist and then became a physician internist, where I saw a lot of big chronic diseases and realized that we don’t have many definitive therapies for those. We don’t have treatments that really address the root causes for a lot of those big diseases. That really motivated me to become an entrepreneur, so I started out investing in early-stage venture ...

Glenmark creates mass awareness around Hypertension

Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, marked the month of May as the ‘Hypertension Awareness Month’ by reportedly partnering with more than 1000 healthcare professionals (HCPs) from 250+ cities and towns across the country, and organised 400+ public awareness rallies and screening camps to create mass awareness around Hypertension (High Blood Pressure). The rallies consisted of general informative sessions led by HCPs, who provided detailed insights on the signs, symptoms, and preventive measures related to Hypertension.

GlobalData

Great progress has been made in the management of female infertility since the introduction of assisted reproductive technology, predominantly in vitro fertilisation (IVF). However, despite the improvements made in the space, challenges associated with the treatment remain. The development of non-injectable fertility medications represents a significant unmet need, according to key opinion leaders (KOLs) interviewed by GlobalData. Dr Shireen Mohammad, Senior Cardiovascular & Metabolic Disorders Analyst at GlobalData, comments, “KOLs have described the level of unmet need in this market as moderate. While injectable gonadotropins are commonly used in IVF, they require subcutaneous or intramuscular injections, which can be inconvenient, painful, and stressful for patients. Therefore, the development of non-injectable alternatives could offer significant benefits in terms of patient convenience, compliance, and the overall treatment experience.” Linzagolix choline, developed by Kissei Pharmaceutical, is an orally administered gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist currently in Phase III clinical trials in the US, ...
